Description

It is the final stage of the 9th five-year plan and the oblast Odusad is still behind the expectations of the State Committee for Agriculture. After poor harvests in the prior years things finally look better and the comrades are looking forward to a bountiful harvest. The pumpkins are tall as tractor wheels and the flowers smell sweeter than ever. If only those pesky weeds will not spoil everything. The head of the Kolkhoz “Druzhba” has proclaimed the “Operation: Dandelion” in order to get rid of the weeds before they completely take over the farm.
All the comrades will have to work together if they want to save the harvest and fulfill the five-year plan. It will be challenging, but it can be done!

“Operation: Dandelion” is a leigt-weight cooperative family board game. It is played over 5 rounds. During each round additional weed tokens will be placed onto the Farm Tiles while the players will move around and clear the fields from these weeds. They have only a limited number of actions available and as the game progresses it becomes more and more challenging to keep the weeds under control. Farm Tiles can be overgrown, the oblast government might send additional support and the players can work overtime – but will it be enough?
